( XK 028 ) ESCAPE ARTIST - Wanna Dance? (12") X-Kalay

Following on from the excellent Cloudsteppers 12" featuring Ciel and Dan Only, X-Kalay are back to it with this sure shot from Melbourne-based Escape Artist. Having previously snuck out on Couch Acid, Salt Mines, Phonica and Kalahari Oyster Cult, you should already have a good idea of the sphere this cat is cruising in. Sleek, techy productions with a tendency towards electro and breakbeat and plenty of trancey elements on top, doubled down to perfection on Roza Terenzi's 'Bassbin Mix' of 'Wanna Dance?' There are some trackier moments such as 'Levitator', but by and large this is trippy club gear for the modern house movers and shakers.
